EVERY PHOTOGRAPH IS AN ENIGMA

[...] the photograph is not in its essence a transparency through which we gain access to a known reality but, on the contrary, a source of ambiguity and perplexity. The photographic image is a constellation of questions for the eye because it offers viewers forms and signs they have never perceived as such and which conflict with their natural vision. [...] For the eye, every photograph is an enigma. The human gaze directed at the photograph reveals an enigma, which in turn echoes the eye's own questions. Michel Frizot , Toute photographie fait énigme

SOMBRAS

Imagínate ahora que, del otro lado del tabique, pasan sombras que llevan toda clase de utensilios y figurillas de hombres y otros animales, hechos en piedra y madera y de diversas clases; y entre los que pasan unos hablan y otros callan. Platón; República VII, 515a
